Sorry, you provided so much information about the problem that I can't sort it all out.  :shake:
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

Did you shift out of 1st gear?
Here is a guy that helps out when others need help & you guys can't even give him a good starting point.

Start by looking at the loose nut behind the wheel then go from there  :gap:

Check the wear on your piston return springs yet?
Bobbed 84 xtra cab, pickin up parts as I go.

If at first you do not succeed, put it in 4low and try again.

Do you have good gas in the fuel tank or is it the old stuff that has been sitting? what is it doing when you throttle up?

My buddy had about the same problem awhile back. Well we started with checkin the electricals, then fuel system, check compression, you name it and was a easy to check thing we did. To come to find out blown head gasket, but not loosing any water no water in the oil, installed new head gasket and she runs like a camp. It did kinda did have a rough idle, but once you hit the skinny pedal it went to SH*t. Try that... Hope i could help man, Im new just tryin to give my  :twocents: worth
